For the Brighton zinefest we do a gig just before the actual zine fair, with bands who are also zinesters and that makes most of the money to cover venue hire and so on.

i guess this reply is too late... but we are currently planning to organize an event... its not explisively for zines, rather it hopes to showcase different independent creative efforts of indie artists (visual/literary/performing). right now were are still trying to find people who will commit into donating copies of their works. Like one photographer is letting us choose 5 works from his entire portfolio, which we can print as many copies as we want...these copies will be sold for a few bucks…

I spoke with a local independent music store and organised to hire their music equipment free of charge, which is a great help to us. And to pay our bands, we will be asking for donations at the door, as well as…

And to pay our bands, we will be asking for donations at the door, as well as having a bake sale during the day. We've asked all of our friends to donate some cake to our bake sale, easy! I expect this will make around $100.<br />

The best way of fundraising for this kind of event however, is applying for council grants. ;) You should check out what kind of art and community grants your local coucil runs.<br />

An another idea.. hottest day of the year? You should totally make lemonade. Lemonade stall! Cute!
